We know Carrollton is not one housing market. It is two. East of I-35E you have brick veneer homes from the 1960s through the 1980s with cast iron drain lines hiding under slabs. West of I-35E you have newer master-planned communities with builder-grade finishes that owners start replacing around year five. Our General Contractor team scopes both differently because they fail differently.
Carrollton’s expansive clay soil moves. Hot, dry summers pull moisture out of the ground and slabs shift. Wet springs push it back. That movement cracks tile, drywall, and sometimes the slab itself if the original grading was not done right. Any contractor working in Carrollton has to account for that before framing, before tile, before paint. We do.
Why Mason Remodeling Co Dallas Is Carrollton’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Carrollton homeowners call us because we hand them a written price before a single tool comes off the truck. Not a verbal estimate that grows. A written line-item price. That matters more here than in most cities because so many Carrollton remodels uncover something under the slab that nobody planned for. When that happens, you already know what the base scope costs and what the change would cost before you approve it.
Every crew member who steps onto your Carrollton property has been background-checked and identity-verified. You receive the technician’s name and photo before the visit, and they show a photo ID badge at your door. That is The Threshold Standard, and it is not optional at any Mason Remodeling job. If you are home alone or have young kids, you know exactly who is coming before you open the door.
Isaac Pruett leads our team with a straightforward rule: cover what you promise, for 365 days from the completion date, in writing. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies across general contracting, bathroom remodeling, and whole-home remodels. If something is not right within that year, we come back and fix it at no cost. No dispute process. No conditions.

General Contractor Services in Carrollton
Carrollton Home Remodeling through our general contractor services covers what most homeowners actually face: a kitchen that needs more than a facelift, a bathroom that never worked for the family, or a house that needs to grow with the people in it. In Carrollton specifically, the first decision is always scope. What is behind the walls? What is under the slab? What will the HOA approve? We answer those before we quote, so the price you see is the price the job actually costs.
Kitchen and Bath Remodels
Kitchen remodels in Carrollton typically run $14,000 to $45,000. A smaller galley kitchen update starts closer to $9,000. Most Carrollton homeowners we work with are replacing builder-grade cabinets and laminate counters with professional-grade options like KraftMaid cabinetry and Cambria quartz. Before we quote, we scope the drain lines. In homes east of I-35E, that scope can change the whole project.
Whole-Home and Room Additions
Home additions in Carrollton run $45,000 to $130,000 depending on square footage, foundation type, and whether you are adding up or out. Room additions on expansive clay soil need proper pier depth and grading, or you will see cracks in the first dry season. We pull permits, coordinate inspections, and make sure every load-bearing change is signed off before we close the walls.

Construction Company in Carrollton
As a Construction Company serving Carrollton, we handle the jobs that need a licensed contractor’s coordination: projects with structural changes, exterior work, concrete, framing, and multiple trades in sequence. Homeowners call us when they want one point of contact, one schedule, and one written price instead of juggling three subs who do not talk to each other.
Foundation, Plumbing, and Pre-Construction Scoping
Carrollton’s clay soil and aging cast iron mean pre-construction scoping is not a nice-to-have. It is the job. We inspect and coordinate slab repairs, trenchless re-pipes, and grading adjustments before finish work starts. Quikrete and Sakrete concrete products come up often on Carrollton slabs and driveways, and we source them from local suppliers to keep material lead times short.
Exterior and Hardscape Work
Driveway and patio work in Carrollton holds up better when the base is built for expansive soil. Paver patios run $3,500 to $11,000. Concrete driveways run $4,500 to $12,000. We compact and grade for drainage first, because a patio that heaves in year two is not a patio, it is a liability.
Trusted Brands We Service in Carrollton
Carrollton homeowners often already have material preferences, and we work with what holds up. On the cabinetry side, we install KraftMaid and Wellborn. On surfaces, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone. We also stock and use Quikrete and Sakrete concrete products for slabs, driveways, and setting work in Carrollton. Because our suppliers run regular routes through the DFW metro, material lead times for Carrollton jobs stay short. You are not waiting on a truck from out of state to get your kitchen counters cut and installed.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Carrollton Homes
- Rusted cast iron under slabs. In the older Carrollton neighborhoods east of I-35E, original cast iron sewer lines rust through so predictably that any kitchen or bath remodel should scope for a re-pipe before setting a single cabinet. We have seen a simple sink leak turn into a full drain line replacement once the slab was opened.
- Clay soil movement cracking new work. Carrollton’s expansive clay expands when wet and shrinks when dry. If a contractor tiles directly over a shifting slab without isolation membrane and proper substrate prep, the grout and tile crack within a year. We plan for movement, not against it.
- Builder warranty voids from unpermitted work. In Carrollton’s newer master-planned communities, cutting into a load-bearing wall without HOA architectural approval and a permit can void the builder’s structural warranty. We handle the HOA paperwork and permit process before any demo starts.
- Uninspected re-pipes hidden behind closed walls. Some contractors re-pipe and close the wall before the inspector signs off, leaving the homeowner with a system that fails later and no recourse. We schedule inspection sign-off before drywall and keep the inspection record on file for you.
Pricing for General Contractor in Carrollton, TX
Here is what Carrollton homeowners should expect to pay for the most common projects right now:
| Project | Typical Carrollton Range |
|---|---|
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Bathroom Remodel | $9,000 – $28,000 |
| Home Addition | $45,000 – $130,000 |
Your final price depends on square footage, what we find during scoping, and the materials you choose. The number we quote is the number you pay. If a change comes up, you approve the change in writing before we do the work. Call (432) 302-8761 for a free estimate with real line items.
One more thing about pricing: Carrollton’s older homes carry a scoping premium. We spend extra time before quote checking slab condition and drain line integrity, because skipping that step is how remodels go $8,000 over budget in week two. The estimate is still free. The time is built in.
For homeowners in Carrollton specifically, pricing is influenced by the two-sided housing stock. A 1970s brick veneer remodel east of I-35E almost always includes some plumbing or foundation scope. A newer build west of the highway usually does not, but may include HOA fees and architectural review time. Both factors show up in the written estimate, clearly labeled.

FAQs About General Contractor in Carrollton
Yes, you should scope for it. Homes built in Carrollton in the 1970s and 1980s commonly have original cast iron drain lines under the slab, and by now many have rusted through or are close to it. Before we set a single cabinet in a kitchen remodel, we camera-scope the main drain line if there is any sign of slab moisture, slow drainage, or foundation movement. If the line is compromised, a trenchless re-pipe can often be done without tearing out the entire slab. Call (432) 302-8761 and we will walk you through what a scope looks like on your street.
It means your contractor has to plan for movement, or the work will fail. Carrollton’s clay soil swells when wet and shrinks when dry, which puts pressure on slabs, piers, and any tile or drywall attached to them. A scope that ignores this will show cracks in new tile and drywall within the first year. We account for it with proper substrate prep, isolation membranes, expansion joints, and pier depth on additions. That planning is why our written price sometimes looks a little higher than a contractor who skips it. It is also why our work holds up through a Carrollton summer and spring cycle.
Yes, if the work is unpermitted or cuts into structural elements without approval. In Carrollton’s newer master-planned communities, your builder’s structural warranty typically requires that any load-bearing changes be permitted and inspected. If a contractor opens a load-bearing wall without a permit, the builder can deny future structural claims. We pull permits on every job that requires one and coordinate HOA architectural approval before demo starts, so your warranty stays intact. That is part of the written scope we hand you before any work begins.
Yes, most do, especially for exterior changes, additions, and sometimes even major interior remodels that affect structure or exterior appearance. Each HOA in Carrollton has its own architectural review process and timelines. We handle the HOA application and approval paperwork as part of the pre-construction scope, and we do not start demo until the written approval is in hand. If you already have an HOA packet, bring it to the estimate. If you do not, we will help you get one.
A full kitchen remodel in Carrollton runs $14,000 to $45,000. A smaller kitchen with stock or semi-custom cabinets and laminate counters can run $9,000 to $20,000. Custom cabinetry, Cambria or Silestone counters, and layout changes that move plumbing or walls push the number toward the top of the range. The only way to know your exact number is a written estimate, which is free. Call (432) 302-8761 to schedule one.
